The next day, Xiao Yi got up early and prepared breakfast for Mao Xiaofang. He waited for Mao Xiaofang in the living room.
Mao Xiaofang came out of the room and saw Xiao Yi waiting in the living room. He smiled helplessly.
Next, Xiao Yi began to learn talismans from Mao Xiaofang.
The first thing was how to draw talismans. The talismans looked simple but were troublesome to draw. The lines were crooked and dazzling. It was Xiao Yi's first time using a brush, so the lines were thick and thin. It was not easy for someone who had used a fountain pen and all kinds of water pens.
Mao Xiaofang looked at Xiao Yi's hands moving from time to time, drawing lightly and heavily. He couldn't help but ask curiously,""Xiao Yi, you don't know how to draw?"
Xiao Yi was sweating profusely! He looked at Mao Xiaofang in shame and said," Master, I'm sorry. We all use fountain pens in Beiping. We also use fountain pens in school. It's my first time using a brush, so I didn't grasp it well. I'll practice more in the future."”
Mao Xiaofang nodded and said," I've heard of the fountain pen you mentioned before. However, in a small place like ours, I've never used the fountain pen you mentioned before. I can only use a brush. You can only use a brush. It's considered that when in Rome, do as the romans do."”
Xiao Yi nodded." Don't worry, Master. I'll get used to it soon."”
Mao Xiaofang continued,"Take your time to draw. When you're done, come find me. I'll teach you how to use it."”
"Master, you can go ahead with your work first. I'll look for you when I'm done.”Xiao Yi continued to draw talismans without raising his head.
Mao Xiaofang turned around and left.
Xiao Yi kept drawing talismans until his wrist was sore and painful. He held his right wrist with his left hand and kneaded it for a while before continuing to draw. After a day of hard work, Xiao Yi's talisman was finally done, and he stopped to rest.
The next day, Xiao Yi woke up early in the morning and prepared breakfast for Mao Xiaofang. He continued to draw talismans until he was satisfied.
Xiao Yi came to find Mao Xiaofang with the talisman he had drawn. Xiao Yi went to the living room. Mao Xiaofang was sitting in the living room, making a pot of tea. As soon as he sat down, Xiao Yi quickly came over and placed the talisman on the table. He poured a cup of tea and placed it in Mao Xiaofang's hand.
"Master, please have some tea."
Mao Xiaofang drank half a cup of tea and asked Xiao Yi,""Done?"
Xiao Yi picked up the talisman from the table and handed it to Mao Xiaofang.""Master, look."
Mao Xiaofang took it and looked at it. He nodded and said,"It's alright."
He then took out a few pieces of paper and handed them to Xiao Yi.""Remember these chants first. I'll teach you how to use talismans tomorrow. Don't underestimate a small talisman. If used properly, it will be very useful.”
Xiao Yi nodded and said,"I know."”
Xiao Yi greeted Mao Xiaofang and returned to his room with the chant. He sat on the bed and opened it to take a look. It was all traditional Chinese characters. Xiao Yi fell back on the bed and buried his head under the pillow."Do you have to be so cunning! It was not easy for me to understand the Mountain Splitting Palm.”
Xiao Yi sighed and helplessly took the pillow away. He resigned himself to his fate and got up from the bed. He sat on the bed, picked up the incantation, and waved his fist. In order to become a Taoist master, he had to give it his all.
In the early morning, the sun shone through the dense branches and leaves, shining through the gaps. Beams of light jumped along with the swaying of the branches, making the entire courtyard full of vitality.
Xiao Yi and Mao Xiaofang came to the courtyard. Mao Xiaofang took out a talisman and pasted it on a bowl-sized stone. He took five or six steps back and chanted,""When the sunrise the east, I will give you a talisman to sweep away evil and subdue demons.”
"Boom!"
A loud sound was heard, and a bowl-sized stone was blasted into pieces. Xiao Yi was stunned by this scene. He did not expect a small talisman to have such great power. It was really terrifying.
Mao Xiaofang smiled when he saw Xiao Yi's dumbfounded expression.
Xiao Yi walked to Mao Xiaofang's side and said excitedly,"Master, this is too amazing!" Let me try."
Mao Xiaofang nodded and handed a talisman to Xiao Yi.
Xiao Yi reached out to take it, stuck the talisman on the stone, and returned to Mao Xiaofang's side. Thinking of the power of the talisman just now, Xiao Yi felt his blood boiling. Xiao Yi closed his eyes and began to chant,"When the sunrise the east, I will give you a talisman to sweep away evil and subdue demons.”
After a while, there was no movement at all. Xiao hurriedly opened his eyes and saw that the talisman was still stuck to the stone. There was no reaction at all.
Xiao Yi turned his head and looked at Mao Xiaofang in confusion.""Master, why is there no reaction?”
Mao Xiaofang smiled helplessly and said,"Do you think it's enough to just recite the incantation? If it's any simpler, everyone can subdue demons."”
Xiao Yi scratched his head in embarrassment and said,""I understand."
Mao Xiaofang then said to Xiao Yi,"You have to take it slow. Feel it with your heart. Come, continue refining."”
After Mao Xiaofang finished speaking, he walked to the stone bench and sat down, looking at Xiao Yi leisurely.
Xiao Yi chanted the incantation to the talisman again and again, not knowing fatigue at all. The sun was scorching hot, and his face was covered in sweat. He continued to recite the incantation. After a morning of hard work, Xiao Yi's efforts finally paid off.
"Boom!"
A voice sounded. Xiao Yi quickly opened his eyes and ran over to take a look. He was slightly stunned. The stone was still smoking. It had been burned black, but it was intact. Xiao Yi turned to Mao Xiaofang and asked excitedly,""Master, is this considered a success?"
Mao Xiaofang stood up from the stone bench and nodded, saying,""It's a success, but you've only just started and can't unleash the power of the charm yet. You have to practice diligently in the future.”
Xiao Yi quickly said,"Yes, Master, I will work hard."”
Mao Xiaofang looked at Xiao Yi's sweaty face and said,""That's all for today. We'll continue refining tomorrow. From tomorrow onwards, I will teach you the Mountain Splitting Palm. In the future, you will practice the Mountain Splitting Palm in the morning and the talismans in the afternoon.”
"Really? Master is going to teach me martial arts? That's great." Xiao Yi said happily.
Mao Xiaofang said,"I'll take you in as my disciple and teach you everything I know. How much you can learn depends on your luck."”
Xiao Yi solemnly said to Mao Xiaofang," Master, don't worry. I won't let you down. I'm proud of you. I hope that one day, you'll be proud of me too."”
Looking at Xiao Yi's serious expression, Mao Xiaofang patted Xiao Yi's shoulder happily." Okay."
Xiao Yi looked at the hot sun and said to Mao Xiaofang,""Master, go rest first. I'll refine for a while more.”
Mao Xiaofang took out a few talismans and handed them to Xiao Yi. He shook his head helplessly and turned to leave.
Xiao Yi looked at Mao Xiaofang's back and said emotionally,""What a sincere person. It's not a loss to have such a master!”
